Will the weather stop you getting out this weekend?

It looks like another tough weekend of snowy weather up here in Cambs.

Will your mileage be affected by the weather or are you planning on getting stuck in regardless?

This winter seems to have gone on for ages now Sad

The weekend here is not looking too bad… next week though, blimey on Metcheck there's more snow than we've had all winter so far. Whatever I'm going out on my bike, even if I won't be getting very far.

I'm back down to a metric century tomorrow from my imperial century last Saturday, and some hill repeats on Sunday if the weather holds out.

Complicating matters since 1965

Will be out on Sunday with Club whether we get to do Rivington and Belmont is going to be down to how bad it gets, apparently its not too good up that way at the moment. Took advantage of today to get my metric century for Feb done just in case.

I managed something today that i've never done before on a bike - a 180° skid that had me ending up rolling backwards down an ice-covered lane. quite how i managed not to fall off at that point i'm not sure. i didn't manage to stay upright the other two times Devil
